What the old man from the Geng family said was tantamount to directly scolding his ancestors.
If it were anyone else, he might have tried his best at that time. But Hu Dong just smiled and didn't seem to care at all.
Not only that, but his attitude became even more humble.
"Brother Geng, I can't give you money or a house. Tell me, why don't you just move? I'm not forcing you to move, I'm forcing you to sell. But your family has dozens and hundreds of people around you.
Family, you are a reasonable person, do you have to give me an explanation? If you have any difficulties, tell me, and I will definitely help you if I can. If you really can’t move, I will think of other ways."
Speaking of this, Hu Dong looked around and smiled at the people around him, "Just now I said that Dayuan's land deed doesn't work. That was a joke. Land deed is land deed. I, Mr. Hu, have read books. The principles of sages say
As the saying goes, it doesn’t matter who becomes the emperor, what belongs to the people belongs to the people. We cannot deny the property in the hands of the people just because the world has changed due to changes in dynasties."
"That's well said!"
"Goodbye, Mr. Hu!"
"Master Hu is benevolent and righteous!"
After Hu Dong finished speaking, there was another round of cheers.
Everyone has a steelyard in their heart, even if they are jealous and jealous at the excitement. But what they own belongs to them after all. You can hate them and hate them for their lack of heart. But you can't be unconscionable and slap someone else's things and say they are wrong. Things belong to others.
Outsiders are not qualified to criticize.
"Why should I tell others about my own house?" Remember https://m.

Although he said this, the old man Geng on the wall had loosened his tone a lot and said loudly, "Our ancestors came from Ganzhou to escape famine. My great-grandfather was carrying the load, with his mother on one end and my grandma and grandpa on the other.
I settled in Yingtian Mansion, worked by scooping people's excrement, and lived with my tail between my legs all my life, so I built three houses by the canal."
"When it came to my grandfather's generation, they continued to collect excrement, and there were three more houses. When my father grew up, he also followed the adults to collect excrement. Our family did dirty work, but we were diligent at heart and smelled of excrement. We could make money.
The money that comes is clean!”
"When I was ten years old, my grandfather and father thought that they could not let me go to the manure ditch again. They tightened their belts and set up a small shop along the river. God bless us, we built ten
Six rooms!”
"But later when the army attacked the city, our small shop in the outer city was completely burned down. These houses were the only ones left to me by my ancestors for generations. I relied on these houses to eat tiles.
If you have children, raise children, and support your family, your life will be pretty good."
"You said you want to sell this house, but I am absolutely unwilling. It's not about the money, but if I sell it, I will never be able to live up to the hardships of my ancestors. All my neighbors are also from poor backgrounds. You say,
Is it worth buying such a small amount of property for several generations? Now that I have sold it, I feel happy for a while, but what else will I leave to future generations in this life?"
"You said you were given a house, a shop, and money. But let me put it bluntly, I have been looking for a living in the outer city all my life. I have seen many different kinds of people and heard many different things. You can tell me face to face.
Well, I have seen him stabbed in the back more than once or twice."
"Mr. Hu, it's pointless for me to say some things in vain. You know exactly what path you are on. I don't want to fight with you, let alone fight with you. We don't conflict with each other."
"We, a small family, don't want to be rich and powerful. We just want to live our own small life behind closed doors. In the future, when I die, each of my two sons will have half of the sixteen rooms. They still live next to each other, and the grandchildren will also be there.
If we are together, this family cannot be separated."
"If you want to play hard, I, the Geng family, will accompany you!"
After saying this, there was silence all around.
As the same saying goes, justice lies in the hearts of the people. Land expropriation is a good thing, but there are always some big guys in this good thing that are shrouded in mystery. Since it is a good thing, the government is the one who posted the notice, so why are these rogues the ones who come forward?
If it's a good thing, why do these scoundrels threaten people to kidnap their grandchildren and sell their wives? Good people, can you say this?
Hu Dong kept nodding and listening with no expression. When the Geng family finished speaking, he cupped his hands and said, "You are right, the inheritance left behind by our ancestors through hard work cannot be measured by a word of money. I wouldn't be willing to do it if it were me.
When you move here, what you are moving is not a home, what you are selling is not a house, but the vicissitudes of your Geng family over the past hundred years!"
"However, you can rest assured about one thing. What you are saying is that you are afraid that we will regret it later and not honor it. So, let's not disturb your house for now. I will ask you to come later, and we will find a government official.
The person acts as guarantor and says that there is no proof, signs and seals it, and stamps it with a seal. If you don't say it, you will think it is not possible, but I still have sincerity!"
After saying that, Hu Dong turned his head, winked at Old Uncle Kuan with a gloomy face, and said to Huang San and others, "Let's go back!"
Huang San was puzzled, "Master Hu, are you leaving now?"
Hu Dong said, "Let's go!"
No one expected that after so many words had been said before, the matter would just be gone in the end.
But talking about the matter, both the folks and the Geng family are quite satisfied with Hu Dong’s conduct as a person. They think this person is quite reliable and kind.’
This Mr. Hu is considered a character and a hero!
After the storm dissipated, there was no more excitement to be seen, and the place beside the canal returned to calm. When the sun went down, smoke came out of every house.
In the back hall of a small wine shop in the outer city, Hu Dong sat on the Taishi chair, holding two silver coins as walnuts on a plate, closing his eyes and meditating. All the gangsters under his command were standing on either side of him, not daring to breathe. Only Lao Kuan
My uncle was sitting on a round stool, waiting for him to speak.
"Uncle Kuan!" Hu Dong finally said, "I still need you to come forward!"
Old Uncle Kuan frowned and said, "It's difficult, the Geng family is a stubborn person, and they won't easily sell the things left by their ancestors!"
"Fuck, he still thinks the money is too little!" Hu Dong opened his eyes, with a ferocious look on his face, "Those high-sounding words, do you think I don't know the little Jiujiu in his heart? He keeps saying how difficult it is for his ancestors, and he keeps saying that he has two sons! Damn it.
Yes, if you just give him one thousand silver dollars and ten houses, he will move faster than anyone else!"
"How can you give him so much?" Old Uncle Kuan asked anxiously, "If you give it to him, if others start making trouble, will this land still be taken?"
Everyone has selfish motives. If this place is not demolished, Old Uncle Kuan will be the security chief of the slums at best. But if it is demolished, he will suddenly become the security chief of a wealthy area, which will be even more prestigious. Besides, Hu Dong also promised him that as long as
He helped with the land acquisition. After the project was completed, his useless son would be able to find a job in Yingtian Mansion.
It's nonsense to say that you wear official clothes, but at least you can wear soap clothes and a belt knife, and you will be a leader among the common people.
"Master Hu, Uncle Kuan is right!" Huang San also said, "These unscrupulous people are so greedy. If you give it to the Geng family now, you can't guarantee that there will be another family in the future. We can't bear it even if the lion opens his mouth.
Come on! We are doing business for the sake of making money, not for the sake of making money!"
"Haha, let me catch his grandma!" Hu Dong's face was filled with a sinister sneer, "The Geng family are hiding in the house now and can't come out. We can't forcefully demolish it. But we can get them out of the mouse hole.
We can’t help them!”
"What do you mean?" Huang San asked.
Hu Dong put down the silver dollar in his hand and said, "Let them come here and tell them to find the government to sign the contract and double the price. Draw a deposit on the spot and give them the money and the deed of the new house. As long as they come out, you will
"
"I will return the house directly, and they will have to admit it even if they don't recognize it!" Huang San understood and said with a smile.
"No!" Old Uncle Kuan said, "If we do this, we will not be reasonable and we will cause trouble! How can there be any reason to take over someone else's house while they are away?"
"Uncle Kuan, don't worry, they won't make trouble." Hu Dong sneered, "There are many people during the day, so we are tied up. When we get to a place where there is no one, he has a knife in one hand and money in the other, and still holds the lives of his family members.
Does he dare to overthrow the sky?"
As he spoke, he said disdainfully, "He files a complaint? He can survive if he doesn't file a lawsuit. If he files a lawsuit, his family will be ruined. He will weigh it himself. If I give him a way to live, he will not end up dead."
Then his face became more and more gloomy, "If you want to extort money from me, there is no way! You have to dismantle it even if you don't want to dismantle it. Not to mention his ancestors, even if it was left to him by the King of Heaven, I must dismantle it!"
